Last night at AWANA, when looking over a girl's answers to the questions in her book, I noticed that she wrote "every day" in answer to a question that asked something about how often the believers met, according to Acts 2. I had to look that one up and check...did they really meet every day? Sure enough, I found she was right! According to Acts 2:46-47 (NIV), "Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."

In the ESV, the phrase "day by day" is used instead of "every day". I'm not sure if the original Greek exactly meant "every day", but in any case it seems the believers at least met quite frequently!

And notice the attitudes present..."glad and generous hearts"..."praising God"..."having favor with all the people"....

Beautiful.
